Scalable privacy for every blockchain.

Blockchains need help.

Blockchains are a revolutionary technology, but they are being held back by fundamental limitations. To truly change the world, blockchains require second-layer networks like Enigma that solve these challenges.

Blockchains face two major issues

Privacy

Data on the blockchain is accessible by anyone, making storing sensitive data impossible. This restricts the number of applications for blockchains.

Scalability

Computing on the blockchain is too slow and expensive. Storing and computing over very large amounts of data on the blockchain is not feasible.

01 PROBLEM

Enigma solves both

The promise of Enigma lies in its unique technology that protects privacy of data while still allowing for computation over that data.

Based on an MIT thesis, the Enigma protocol is a second-layer network that can work with any blockchain. Nodes in the Enigma network do not see the data they compute over, yet they can publicly prove that they have run a computation correctly. This opens the door for a new type of smart contracts – “secret contracts,” where the underlying data processed in the contract remains encrypted at all times.

Catalyst is the first application to be built on the Enigma protocol, already active with tens of thousands of users. Catalyst is a revolutionary platform for data-driven cryptoasset investing and research, built for professional crypto traders.
